#freehotelstay #hongkong #localguides Mui Wo, located on Lantau Island in Hong Kong, is a picturesque town known for its serene landscapes and cultural charm. Nestled between verdant hills and a sandy shoreline, Mui Wo offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city life of Hong Kong. The town retains a distinctive local character with traditional village houses and small businesses. Visitors can explore the Silver Mine Bay Beach, enjoy hiking trails, and discover the iconic Lantau Island attractions like the Big Buddha and Po Lin Monastery. Mui Wo's blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage makes it a unique destination in the vibrant tapestry of Hong Kong.

With open air seats overlooking a tranquil pond as the backdrop, @thehideout in Mui Wo has taken over Instagram by storm, so we went to check it out for ourselves. What you need to know before you go: 1. Book in advance online (hard to walk-in) 2. Check the ferry/ bus schedule (Central Pier Number 6/ 3M from Tung Chung) 3. Refer to the map on how to get there (it’s a 10 minute walk from the pier and you’ll pass through a parking lot) 4. Arrive 10 minutes early (to snatch the good spots as it’s free seating) 5. 2 hours dining limit (they’ll call you to inform your time is up) 𝐊𝐲𝐨𝐭𝐨 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞 𝐇𝐊𝐃𝟓𝟖 The pretty presentation with a frilly four-leaf clover latte art enchanted me at first sight! Taste-wise, it was more on the milky and creamy side that suited my preferences. 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐕𝐨𝐝𝐤𝐚 𝐏𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐞 𝐇𝐊𝐃𝟏𝟒𝟎 The penne had a sharp flavor accent, which made it a little spicy for me, but luckily the perfectly grilled chicken breasts totally made up for it. 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐚 𝐇𝐚𝐦 𝐏𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐚 𝐇𝐊𝐃𝟏𝟓𝟎 Parma ham and rocket leaves are essentially an irresistible combination. Loved the thin crispy crust and bright tangy tomato sauce, but the cheese solidified too fast due to the cold winter wind, so remember to eat this first! 𝐍𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐬 𝐇𝐊𝐃𝟏𝟏𝟎 Although nachos are basically foolproof, this dish would have been even better if they were more generous with the toppings as well as the sour cream/ avocado dips on the side 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐇𝐊𝐃𝟕𝟎 My friends surprised me with a sweet tiramisu cake for my birthday 🎂 We felt like it was more like soft ice cream though ✨ 𝙁𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬 @𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚.𝙢𝙞𝙨𝙨.𝙥𝙞𝙘𝙠𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬𝙨 📍 The Hideout Ngan Kwong Wan Road, Mui Wo, Lantau Island #hongkong #foodie #本地遊

Mui Wo - Silvermine beach and the beautiful waterfall. Getting There - It's easy to get here with a fast ferry from Central pier. #foodie Attractions - The walk to Silvermine caves and waterfall is very relaxing (kids and elders could do it easily) as you walk past farmlands and I think the waterfall would be even better during the rainy season. Food & Restaurants -The seafood is delicious and of a very high quality. The fried noodles with prawns and the roast pigeon were both amazing 😍😍😍
